Re: [Ginseng] New to group

I'm in southern Indiana.

I'm in Ohio.

Mostly what I've done is found a nice naturally
occurring patch, and replant the seeds each fall.

Thats all i've done too. I'm trying to keep it as wild
as I can. The hard part is being patient. LOL

I've amended the soil. And will be testing the area
again in the next couple of days.

Now this i've never done. What is it?

I've been told that ginseng grown in tilled soil
looses it's "wild" look, it doesn't have to
work as hard to grow, so the roots get big and fat,
and lose the rings.

This is true, the more commercial it is the less the
value. I've never tried to sell it so i'm not sure
about all that.

There are some good sites out there that explain alot.
